Helloo and happy almost December!! We're ending this thankful month with Misty McCraw, the owner of both Blue Magnolia Graphics and Misty McCraw Consulting.

Misty has been a small business owner since 2017. She took Blue Magnolia Graphics, which started as a hobby, and grew it into the complete graphics company that it is today. Because she has a passion to help people, Misty started a community organization in her town for small business women to meet monthly and lend support and encouragement. 

Her part in that led her to her second business, Misty McCraw Consulting. Here, she helps small businesses get started and coaches them through the business process and helps them with marketing and communications!

I really enjoyed talking with Misty and how she got to where she is today. She has tons of helpful advice for new business owners, and I'm so grateful I got the chance to hear from her. :)

Remember, "no one can do what you do like you do it" and "do it scared". - Misty

Trigger warning: this episode has moments of mentioning thoughts of suicide.

Helloooo! This week's episode touched on all things entrepreneurship, fitness, health, and Stoicism. I'm grateful for the chance to connect with Choong, a fitness coach from New Zealand.

Choong's goal is to help entrepreneurs, hustlers, and millennials build a sustainable fitness system as they enter the age of working hard to earn a living. You cant make money or be the best version of yourself if your body is in shambles.

Choong has seen and lived (and is still living!) that lifestyle in himself in others to find that perfect work-life-health balance. It is not easy, but with the right framework you can make it work. Live your life. Memento Mori.

In this episode, we chatted about:

• why Choong chose the path of fitness + entrepreneurship
• the importance of health and making time for yourself
• Stoicism and how it helps with entrepreneurship

Power Quotes:

• "Health is not just about the physical aspect or nutritional aspect - health is holistic." ~25:54
• "Work to get the income to support the lifestyle that you want to live." ~55:54
• "Being content doesn't necessarily mean stop demanding more from yourself." ~58:26

Book Recs:

• Atomic Habits by James Clear
• Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz (I highly, highly recommend this as well!!)

Thank you Choong for all of your insights!

Imposter syndrome is a common occurrence in people of all types of backgrounds. Many, many people may experience feelings of self-doubt and as if they are a fraud amongst a crowd of more "successful" people.

Let's talk about why feelings of imposter syndrome are completely normal and why you should be proud of yourself, instead of doubtful.

You have a unique gift, and when you actively use that gift in a way that makes you happy, there is no need to compare yourself to others or question your special powers.

Setting goals for yourself is so important, whether they are personal or for your business. But there are a few things to keep in mind and to stay away from when setting these goals:

• Not having a strong “why”
• Basing self worth on others’ opinions
• Unfair comparison - comparing the work of someone who's just starting out compared to someone who's been doing it for 10 years
